The Medallion Assisted Living Residence now offers a respite program providing short-term assisted living for family caregivers in the Houston area. Located on the Seven Acres campus in the Greater Meyerland Area, the program addresses growing caregiver burnout with professionally supervised temporary stays.
According to AARP’s 2025 caregiving report, one in five family caregivers rates their own health as fair or poor. The physical and emotional demands of managing medications, coordinating medical appointments, and providing daily support take a measurable toll on those providing unpaid care to aging family members.
The Medallion’s respite program requires a two-week minimum stay. For families unfamiliar with this option, understanding what respite care involves can help clarify whether it fits their situation. Guests reside in comfortably furnished assisted living apartments rather than clinical settings. The program includes three meals daily, round-the-clock care and supervision, and full access to community amenities including a heated aqua therapy pool, library, and outdoor courtyards.
The program serves multiple purposes beyond caregiver relief. Many families use respite stays as a trial period before making permanent decisions about assisted living. A two-week stay allows seniors and their families to experience daily routines, meals, and social programming firsthand.
Seniors recovering from hospital stays or surgeries also benefit from the program. The supervised environment provides meal preparation, medication support, and fall prevention during the vulnerable post-discharge period. The Medallion’s proximity to the Texas Medical Center makes coordination with physicians convenient.
The community welcomes pets during respite stays for an additional fee. Outdoor courtyards and walking paths accommodate daily exercise for companion animals.
Seven Acres has served the Houston community for over 80 years. As a nonprofit organization, Seven Acres welcomes residents of all backgrounds. Respite stays are priced similarly to a resort hotel.
Families may schedule a tour weekdays from 9 AM to 4 PM to learn more about respite stays and view available apartments.
